+A 12-room villa on a 6,000-square-metre garden estate in Tunis village, Fayoum Oasis — two hours southwest of Cairo — restored by the founder of Al Moudira with vintage Egyptian textiles, antiques, and salvaged craft around a 16-metre pool in golden granite and Sinai marble. Day trips reach Wadi Al-Hitan, the UNESCO Valley of the Whales, where 40-million-year-old fossilized whale skeletons protrude from the desert floor.
